Page 9 - Final Noosa Cycling and Walking Strategy and Implementation Plan 2020 - 2040
P. 9

Background






           The NCWSIP presents the vision, objectives, strategies and
           actions for increasing bike riding and walking in Noosa over
           the next 20 years (to 2040). It updates the Noosa Cycling
           and Walking Strategy 2004-2016.


           The strategy will guide Noosa Council’s (Council) planning,
           development and promotion of its bike riding and walking
           networks in the future. The plan covers both the active
           transport network for those commuting by bike or foot and
           connections to the bushland trail network for those wanting
           to enjoy the great outdoors.






         "It's about getting people

         out of cars, onto bikes,


         onto footpaths and getting

         to where we need to go in


         a safe and enjoyable way."



                             Councillor Brian Stockwell








           Strategy alignment


           Community feedback and adoption of Council’s strategy
           documents, demonstrate a strong agenda for sustainable
           transport outcomes, to reduce dependency on private
           motor vehicles, and increase bike riding, walking and public
           transport use. Increased community participation in bike
           riding and walking activities support the objectives of the
           following Council strategies.
